Nineteenth-century Italy is a vast, unexplored territory in the history of modern political thought and liberal democratic
theory. Apart from Mazzini, Pareto, and Mosca, the authors of this period are little read, even though their central concerns
- the riddle of human liberation, progress, and liberty - are as important today as ever. This volume presents a selection
of the writings of Carlo Cattaneo (1801-1869), one of the period's most important thinkers, as selected by an equally important
personage of a subsequent time, the anti-Fascist intellectual Gaetano Salvemini.Cattaneo had a profound sense of the historical
contingencies underlying the quest both to understand human affairs and to realize a self-governing society. Cattaneo's ideas
and framework of analysis - like those of John Stuart Mill and Alexis de Tocqueville - were not shaped by a narrow intra-academic
agenda but by the great social, economic, and political transformations of his time. The issues he addressed included problems
of revolution, reform, and change in the passage to modernity, which extended far beyond the confines of nineteenth-century
Italy.The selection of original pieces presented in this translation is preceded by an introduction by the editors, Carlo
G. Lacaita and Filippo Sabetti, which guides the reader through Cattaneo's thinking and puts it in a comparative context.
Ultimately, however, it is the editors' goal to let this profound Italian thinker speak for himself

"Available here for the first time in English, this volume showcases Del pensiero come principio d'economia publica, Cattaneo's
pioneering vision of economic processes, the value of knowledge and innovation, and the importance of liberty. This classic
work of Italian thought is framed by a long biographical sketch of Cattaneo's life before, during, and after the Italian Risorgimento
and an afterword that demonstrates the continuing relevance of Cattaneo's social, political, and economic ideas to today's
ongoing debate about the importance of a free society."--Jacket
